just wondering

[Guest guest]

Hello all, My name is Heidi , I mostly lurk and read all the good

advice, but on occasion I ask questions. Well here is another kind of.....

Ok ph is 8 almost 9 with Downs, ADHD, and Allergies, but lately

wonder if there is something else or if there is another kind of medication.

Behaviors include: Choking brother, sister, or myself when he gets mad,

Not listening typical of most kids at some time or another, but it is like

nothing sinks in at all., hitting, spitting, saying I hate all the time,

throwing things, Banging sisters head on the floor, and just with in the

last few days breaking whatever is in sight glass, (on that one I think he

likes the reaction of what happens when he does it.), He is just plan mean

He is taking Tenex and Clonidine for his ADHD and the Clonidine is to also

help sleep.

To me I guess he seems very angry at times, he is rarely happy. I am just

kind of feeling like I don't know what to do and maybe just need to vent,

sometimes I feel like the people and family I am around do not understand.

I guess I just need to know if there is something else that needs to be

addressed or just an ear to vent. Any advice would be appreciated.

How do you discipline a kid that just does not care that much about

anything? He does not care about what you take away, I do know there has

to be a way though, any ideas... I don't know why I feel so lost on

everything now but feel like nothing works that I have tried.

Thank you all in advance and thank you all for listening to me vent.

Hugs Heidi
